Makes first career reception Taylor hauled in his lone target and finished with one reception for 20 yards in Monday's victory over the Falcons.

Impact With three of his fellow wideouts sidelined by injuries Taylor made his first career start and finished second among Packers receivers in snaps. He played only a bit role in the offense, but he did notch his first career reception on a fourth-down play that extended a Packers scoring drive near the end of the first half. While Taylor spent a lot of time on the field Monday, his snap count figures to take a hit next time the Packers take the field in Week 6, as Davante Adams (hamstring) will likely be ready to return to action.

Opens as fourth receiver Taylor will open the season as the Packers' No. 4 receiver.

Impact It was somewhat of a surprise that Taylor cracked the Packers' 53-man roster, but the team's Week 1 lineup indicates he comfortably made the cut, as he will be in uniform and fellow wideout Equanimeous St. Brown will be a healthy scratch. Taylor does not figure to have a big role, but he could see a few snaps on offense and will likely be busy on special teams.

Listed as backup Taylor is listed as the backup to Allen Lazard on the unofficial depth chart released by Green Bay on Monday night.

Impact Taylor looks set to begin the 2020 campaign as Green Bay's fifth wideout, with Equanimeous St. Brown having earned two backup gigs on the initial depth chart. The Ferris State product spent time on the Packers' practice squad last season. With Devin Funchess having opted out, Taylor could now be in fair position to make his NFL debut this year.
